The Desires of Thine Heart, Ps 37:4
The desires of thine heart are, by definition, the things that you long or hope for. So, when a man longs or hopes for a Boone and Crockett deer he will spend his money on leases and hunting gear and he will spend his weekends during deer season hunting until he gets what he has […]
Get Up A Crowd, Matt 14:34-36
Get Up A Crowd In Matt 14:34-36 we read, “All that were diseased were made perfectly whole”. These were remarkable miracles performed by the Lord Jesus Christ during his earthly ministry.

Jesus the Good Shepherd, Jn 10:11
By comparison to a shepherd we understand that Jesus the good shepherd: Seeks – Lk 15:4-7; 19:10 – he came “to seek and to save that which was lost.” We are not Calvinistic, but we believe the Holy Spirit must be involved in the gospel for folks to get saved. Cornelius is a good example […]
The Devil is a Unifier, Is 10:13
In Is 10:13 we read that the devil has “removed the bounds of the people.” You might remember from our prior broadcast that the Lord is the one who set the bounds, in order to keep the nations separate [Deut 32:8; Acts 17:26]. So, the devil is a unifier, whereas God is a divider. The […]

Snares and Traps, Jos 23:13
Snares and Traps In Jos 21:43-45, the Lord gave Israel all the land he promised them, and he gave them rest. There stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the Lord delivered all their enemies into their hand. There failed not ought… all came to pass. Consider Caleb in Jos 14:7-12. He […]
